Extract:


Question 1 of 5

The nurse is administering a tap water enema when the client begins to complain of abdominal cramping. The nurse should:

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Lowering the enema container slows the flow, reducing cramping. Stopping or withdrawing the tubing is premature, and advancing may worsen discomfort.

Question 2 of 5

Magnetic resonance imaging has been ordered for a client. Which factor should the nurse report to the physician?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: A pacemaker is a contraindication for MRI due to magnetic interference, requiring immediate physician notification to ensure safety.

Question 3 of 5

The nurse is to administer a tuberculin skin test. At what angle should the needle be inserted?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: A 10-degree angle ensures intradermal injection for a tuberculin skin test, creating a wheal for accurate reading.

Question 4 of 5

Which of these women in the labor and delivery unit would the nurse check first when the water breaks (ROM) for all of them within a 2 minute period?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: A multigravida with station at -1, contractions at 15 minutes apart with duration of 30 seconds, cervix dilated at 3 cm, and 10% effacement. When the station is -1 or -2 and the water breaks, the risk is greater for a prolapsed cord.

Question 5 of 5

The nurse is acting as a preceptor for a student nurse in the labor and delivery unit. Which action by the student would require correction by the nurse?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Artificial nails harbor bacteria, and scrubbing underneath is inadequate; they should be avoided in labor and delivery. Other actions align with infection control protocols.
